It was a lonely night on the sea, calm, clear sky, the stars and moon shining. The moon, o' how the sea loved clear nights like this.. The sea would flourish in the light of the moon, but tonight, the moon was brighter than normal, and closer. "The seasons must be changing" the sea thought, she hoped the moon would stay this close, the moon makes her water feel clean and fresh, the coral almost glows and the fish shimmer in the light that seeped through her water. The sea feels calm, happy, but deep down, she is yearning for a friend, a companion, maybe even a lover. Just someone to share the beauty of her deep blue sea with. Her waves calm, it is still again.. No movements, not even from the aquatic creatures that lived in it, it is still.. but not silent. The sea notices this, she stares at the moon, hearing her hums, she listened, intensely, "How beautiful." the sea thought.. "Like an angel humming it's tune before it comes down from heaven.." The sea listened to the wonderful sound... Then it stopped. The sea was caught off guard by the abrupt lack of tunes, she watched the moon, pleading for the sound to come back, but it never did. It was silent once again.. And the tune, never came back.

A few nights have passed, how long has it been.. Days..? A week..? The sea can't tell anymore. The sea's managed to perform a few waves for the life that lives underneath her clear cool water, but tonight once again, it is still.. The moon has been covered by clouds, the weather is changing, the humans that lived on the land no longer come to visit the sea's graceful waves and cool water, no, for her water is too cold for their sensitive body's, though she does not blame them for her loneliness.. She watches the sky, ever so patiently, waiting to be graced once again by the moon. After watching for what seemed like hour, she finally accepts that the moon may not come back until the seasons have passed, and then she is put to rest.

The sea is awakened from her slumber, it is still a cold season. The sea grows tired and irritated, storm clouds brew in the distance, her waters shift and turn violently, "Where is my moon?" she thinks to herself, as her waves become more violent and loud. Her anger has gotten the best of her, the waves grow bigger and bigger, they thrash and hit the land, a few humans that were near the land have already ran off, for the storm has come, and the sea's anger has come along with it. A huge wave was formed, a wave of anger and loneliness. Just as the wave was at it's peak.. Humm.. Humm.. The sea was confused. "Is that..?" The wave immediately drops back into the ocean, the storm barely lingers.. For a bright glowing light is starting to peak from the clouds. The sea recognized the hum, and light.

It's the moon.

The sea stares, calmness immediately overtaking her waters, the fish and aquatic life finally come back, for she is here, her, The Moon. The sea is in disbelieve, for it wasn't the whole moon, but it was.. Human? What is a human doing here? The sea thought. But coming from the human was the same hum that came from the moon. Is the moon inside the human? The sea was confused, then.. She spoke. "Do not fear me, I bring no harm." The sea was astonished, and looked closer.. The human had dark soft skin with white hair that almost looked.. transparent? The sparkling robes that gracefully wrapped around her body, the white trinkets in her hair, and her eyes... They looked like the moon itself, could it be that this is the moon..? The human smiled, her smile was as radiant as the light that came off of her. It was a pure smile of kindness, the sea was amazed, she has never seen a human that was so beautiful. The human adjusted an object in her lap, a decent sized item that had strings attached to it, she put her delicate fingers covered in white, almost opal-like rings, on the strings of the item. What came from it was a beautiful sound, almost angelic, the sea stared and listened. The human's smile faltered, "What is your name..?" she asked. The sea thought, 'A name? Do I have a name..?" The sea stayed silent. The human lowered herself, with a wave of her hand the ocean's water began to move back.. When the water moved back, there stood a young woman with long dark blue hair, the hair laid on the wet sand, the young woman looked down at herself, she briefly panicked but then noticed the light of the moon has faded, there stood the human. At this view the sea could see her clearly, her facial features were beautiful, white strings connected to each ring on her face, small marking under her eyes.. Her eyelashes were as white as her hair, they looked like an angel's wings.. The sea's eyes softened, 'Only someone so beautiful can be from the moon..' The sea thought to herself as she sat in the slowly drying sand. The moon stared at The Sea, her long dark hair reminded her of the night sky, her fair skin looked soft, her deep brown eyes held curiosity and slight panic, The Moon gently grabs The Sea's hands, "Would you like to make music with me?" The moon asked in a soft voice, The Sea looked up at her "But i've never made a song before, i've been alone for so long." she said with sadness lacing her voice. The moon smiled and helped The Sea stand up, "I know your story, do not fear, I will always be with you." She'd whisper, The sea slightly smiled, "Really?", "Of course, what do you want to name our song?"

"The sea's lullaby."
